The Red Drapes (for Roman Polanski)

She was totally paralyzed after
A few glasses of champagne and
After all that noise, she
Stayed there and opened up
He examined her, approving
She did not consider
What had occurred
When she saw the heavy red drapes
Early in the morning over
And around her long legs
"Goodbye," he said and
"You figure it out."

  1. This one really packs a punch. The understated abuse is, well, expertly understated. I'm engrossed.
